Dragonback Lancer rulings

2025-04-04
You choose the player, planeswalker, or battle each Warrior token is attacking. They don’t all have to attack the same one, and they don’t have to attack the same player, planeswalker, or battle as the creature with mobilize.
2025-04-04
Although the Warrior tokens enter as attacking creatures, they were never declared as attacking creatures. Abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks won’t trigger when the tokens enter attacking.

Flying Rule 702.9

Flying is an evasion ability.

A creature with flying can’t be blocked except by creatures with flying and/or reach. A creature with flying can block a creature with or without flying. (See rule , “Declare Blockers Step,” and rule , “Reach.”)

Multiple instances of flying on the same creature are redundant.
